More info
Imagine if you could have a power amplifier, a tube headphone amplifier and a tube pre-amplifier all fit within the same small form factor case and built with high-quality “old school” components. Now you can have all of that. This is the Maverick Audio A1 Hybrid Amplifier, a multifunction amplifier that can go anywhere, in any setup and drive your analog listening devices (speakers, headphones) with power and quality.
When classic analog meets today’s digital world
We are increasingly reliant on the digital format to store our music. However, no matter what setup, it is a pure analog signal that drives the listening devices — your speakers and headphones. Vacuum tubes, R-core transformer, metal-film resistors — A1 utilizes all “old school” analog components to add warmth and smoothness into the analog signal, to remove the dry and sterile “digital flavor” from the music.
Small size, big power.
Real, not peak, 20-watt output through a classic Class A/B amplifying circuit backed by a 80-watt linear R-core transformer. A1 is not a cheap Class-D amplifier, and it has enough power to drive small to medium size bookshelf speakers.
“Hybrid” Class A/B power amplifying
A1’s power amplifying uses vacuum tubes plus a solid state circuit. The audio signal will go through a pair of vacuum tubes first and then the solid state. You will have the benefits from both worlds — vacuum tube’s warmth and solid state’s speed.
Pure tube driven headphone amplifier
We know how much you love the sound from a pure tube headphone amplifier. A1 uses two very rare beautiful Raytheon 6AK4 tubes matched in the original Raytheon factory to drive the headphone output. It has tons of power to drive any kind of headphones on the planet. In fact, it is so good that it can be compared to a lot much expensive dedicated tube headphone amplifier.
Tube preamp outputs stage
A1 also can be used as a standalone tube pre-amplifier to be added into your audio setup.
